Scientists tracking the populations of certain freshwater fish have found an increase in the female to male ratio of several sma

ller fish species over the last 10 years. One group of scientists have analyzed the data and hypothesized that medications in wastewater have contributed to this change in fish populations. Another group of scientists have hypothesized that this population trend is part of a cycle related to climate and ecosystem changes. If these two groups of scientists have access to the same population data, why have they formed two very different hypotheses?

A hypothesis tries to explain a data at hand. It is an educated guess which is testable and falsifiable. To test a hypothesis scientists carry out experiments following the scientific protocol. Based on the data obtained in the controlled experiments hypothesis are either proven correct or incorrect.

I believe that the answer to the question provided above is that <span>they formed two very different hypotheses since it is what they saw according to what they knew. Also hypothesis is just an intelligent guess.</span>

SO42- + 2Cr(OH)3 + 4OH- → + 2CrO42- + 3SO32- + 5H2O
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Reduced species and oxidizing agent: sulfur in the form of sulfate.

Oxidized species and reducing agent: chromium in the form of chromous hydroxide.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the reaction:

SO_4^{2-} + 2Cr(OH)_3 + 4OH^- \rightarrow  2CrO_4^{2-} + 3SO_3^{2-} + 5H_2O

We can see that the oxidation states of sulfur and chromium change from +6 to +4 and +3 to +6 respectively; in such a way, since the oxidized species is the same reducing agent because it undergoes an increase in the oxidation state, we infer that chromium is it as it goes from +3 to +6.

Moreover, since the reduced species is the same oxidizing agent because it undergoes a decrease in the oxidation state, we infer that sulfur is it as it goes from +6 to +4.

Best regards!
